In reply to Alan Eversfield. I've been wondering about that. The tank fitter said to empty the grey water asap when moving. Thank you.

There could well be a problem over weight if you fit extra tanks and carry water on the road. I suggest you check what weight your van is now BEFORE you fit these tanks

You have only a single axle (like my UK built caravan) and as such are limited

Hi Paul, yes, after doing that video I ended up talking to a motorhomer who had more fresh water. Maybe it’s only if it’s at the smaller quantities?
My screw driver has been well used in the time I’ve had the caravan! Sounds like a great trip – 7 months!

I don’t think grey water tanks need to be larger than fresh. I have 120 litre fresh water and 60 litre grey but the tanks are electronically monitored in quarter increments. Li’ke your blog, mentally ticked off everything on your packing list. You must be particularly practical to mention packing screws! Spent 7 months travelling around UK in 2006 and picked up every nail, screw and she’ll weight I spotted lying around! The wheel weight made a great fishing sinker and it was surprising how many of those screws and nails that I found got used!
Happy travelling,
Paul
